Still in complaint mode, but not totally unhappy :)
Sep 17, 2010
I'm still not eating well, or properly. I am not happy with any protein drinks, and recently began dumping on milk and Java Jo's coffee. What a disappointment that is. I've drunk milk my whole life! I lived on milk the first couple of weeks after my surgery. The other day I thought, well, let me go back to milk, since nothing else is working well. Didn't do well.I look better, have been dressing better, have been moisturizing my legs and arms daily, wearing eye liner and look pretty good. I need to learn some up-dos so my longer hair looks more professional. I also need a haircut.
But my knees are still hurting lots. I am 67# from my highest weight, and about 57 pounds post-surgery. I know this isn't too bad. Let's see... I'm 14 weeks post-op. 57/14= 4#/week. That's a good average. I'm just frustrated that I can't eat. To be perfectly honest here, if I COULD eat better, I would I love fruit. I love salads. I don't even need dressing. Nothing or a very modest amt of oil and vinegar is very satisfying. I have liked most meats okay in the past. Okay, I'm going to force myself to eat. I read on here that folks forced themselves to be learn to gulp water again, and so I did, too. Now I'm going to force myself to eat meats and other high-protein items, and write everything down and see how it goes.
